There we go. Isn't that better? Isn't it better when an M3 looks like a BMW? What did we do you ask? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. It is simply a picture of the M-Performance equipped G20 M340i and its subtle yet elegant aero pieces. ...Published on 10-29-2019 07:33 PM
This is what you see shared on social media and people eat it up. The tuner claims this is a factory turbo B58 Supra on a 91 octane tune with some ethanol. Well, you are not getting 642+ lb-ft of torque at the wheels out of the factory turbocharger. ...Published on 10-29-2019 04:56 PM
Porsche will again bring back the 911 GT3 touring model with the 992 generation. This model proved popular as not everyone wants the giant rear wing and not everyone will have their GT3 live on the track. ...Published on 10-29-2019 02:51 PM
Congratulations to Eurocharged Canada who tuned this McLaren 720S on the factory turbochargers. This is a boost only and factory turbo North American record. That means no nitrous or power adders involved just what the car comes with from the factory. ...Published on 10-29-2019 02:27 PM
It is not a joke BMW played on us. The pre-production leaks of the G80 M3 front end with the huge vertical kidney grills and the rear end are indeed accurate as confirmed by the head of the BMW M division Markus Flasch. ...Published on 10-28-2019 07:34 PM
This is why the switch to the S55 motor is so big for the BMW F87 M2 platform. It is also why Car and Driver writing that the M2 Competition 'Doesn't Perform Any Better' was such a joke. Look at what some simple bolt on tuning does for an M2 Competition. ...Published on 10-28-2019 06:43 PM
The main roadblock for modern Mercedes-AMG's seemed to be the TCU (transmission control unit) software. It seems tuners are able to address the TCU now on the 722.9 MCT transmission which means upgraded hardware to pair with the software is key. ...Published on 10-28-2019 05:21 PM
It is good to see what a car does on a tighter circuit than just going by the Nurburgring as many people do. Which car comes out on top often shifts based on the type of roadcourse. The Hockenheim GP circuit does not just reward power although it certainly doesn't hurt. ...Published on 10-28-2019 04:11 PM
The upper edge of boost only factory turbo MKV Supras seemed to be about 124-125 miles per of hour of trap speed in the 1/4 mile. There were those that hit 128+ on the factory turbo but that was done with nitrous. So how is this car doing ~128 without nitrous? ...Published on 10-28-2019 03:43 PM
Part of the problem in the aftermarket is finding companies that truly deliver as promised. Unfortunately, the tuning scene is filled with crooks but also many reputable companies that stand the test of time. ECS Tuning certainly is one that stood the test of time. ...Published on 10-26-2019 07:23 PM
Time sure flies, eh? There was a time when people said BimmerBoost.com would not make it a year, let alone ten. Well, in January, 2020 it will be the 10th anniversary of the BimmerBoost BMW Performance Forums and we're celebrating in grand style. ...Published on 10-26-2019 04:21 PM
F80 M3 humbling performance out of a 2.0 liter four-cylinder Audi S3 sedan? Believe it. This 8V Audi S3 2.0 TFSI EA888 features Unitronic tuning courtesy of their Stage 2 ECU (engine control unit) and TCU (transmission control unit) performance software. ...Published on 10-26-2019 03:45 PM
PorscheBoost Porsche Performance Forums member @quattr0 decided it was time to unlock some of the power in his car and upgrade the cooling at the same time. He took his 2017 911 Carrera to Driversource located in Houston, Texas. ...Published on 10-26-2019 03:03 PM
This is an interesting development from TurboSource. Now variable A/R (Aspect Ratio) in a turbocharger is nothing new as that is exactly the idea behind VTG (Variable Turbine Geometry) turbochargers which Porsche is well known to use in production cars. ...Published on 10-26-2019 02:21 PM
This may not be as crazy as you think. Attitudes about performance wagons are changing and Audi bringing over the RS6 Avant for the first time ever to the USA signals changing tides in the market. ...
